String automatically converted to upper case on the selection screen

former_member806437 — Tue, 28 Jun 2022 06:59:49 GMT

Hi,

In module pool programming, I enter a string value manually on the selection screen. But it is getting converted to upper case automatically.

So, please help me in declaring the variable to accept both upper and lowercase.

DATA : v_ct_id type string. This is the variable I've declared.

Thanks.

Hello kunimbedu30

Use LOWER CASE addition with PARAMETERS to define the selection field.

Best regards

Hi,

I have declared the variable as DATA: v_ct_id TYPE string.

So may I know where to add LOWER CASE in the above statement.

You said in the initial question "string value manually on the selection screen'. So you must have defined a selection screen and a selection parameter there. Reports' selection parameters are declared with PARAMETERS statement. That's why I mentioned LOWER CASE addition.

If your screen is however implemented with SAP Screen Builder make sure to mark "Case-Sensitive" property of the field:

You may search the forum/SAP Web site with your favorite Web search engine. I see many answers for search below. Based on the results, if it still doesn't solve, you may anyway refine your query/provide more information.
